This dissertation is concerned with invertibility and one-sided invertibility of Toeplitz operators over the half plane whose generating functions admit homogenous discontinuities, and with stability of their pseudo finite sections. The invertibility criterium is given in terms of invertibility of a family of one dimensional Toeplitz operators with piecewise continuous generating functions. The one-sided invertibility criterium is given it terms of constraints on the partial indices of certain Toeplitz operator valued function.

Neste trabalho são colocadas abordagens contextualizadas e proposições referentes às noções de ponto fixo nas principais funções reais (afim, quadrática, modular, dentre outras) e sua interpretação geométrica. São abordados de maneira introdutória os conceitos do teorema do ponto fixo de Brouwer, o teorema do ponto fixo de Banach e o método de resolução de equações por aproximações sucessivas / The main objective of this work is to produce a theoretical concepts related to fixed point, enabling, for high school students, the development of skills and competencies related to Mathematics. This work placed contextualized approaches and proposals relating to notions of fixed point in the main real functions (affine, quadratic, modular, among others) and its geometric interpretation. Are approached introductory concepts of the fixed point theorem of Brouwer's, fixed point theorem of Banach and the method of solving equations by successive approximations

The dissertation consists of two parts. In the first part approximate methods for multidimensional weakly singular integral operators with operator-valued kernels are investigated. Convergence results and error estimates are given. There is considered an application of these methods to solving radiation transfer problems. Numerical results are presented, too. In the second part we consider a polynomial collocation method for the numerical solution of a singular integral equation over the interval. More precisely, the operator of our integral equation is supposed to be of the form \ $aI + b \mu^{-1} S \mu I $\ with \ $S$\ the Cauchy singular integral operator, with piecewise continuous coefficients \ $a$\ and \ $b,$\ and with a Jacobi weight \ $\mu.$\ To the equation we apply a collocation method, where the collocation points are the Chebyshev nodes of the first kind and where the trial space is the space of polynomials multiplied by another Jacobi weight. For the stability and convergence of this collocation method in weighted \ $L^2$\ spaces, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions. Moreover, the extension of these results to an algebra generated by the sequences of the collocation method applied to the mentioned singular integral operators is discussed and the behaviour of the singular values of the discretized operators is investigated. / Die Dissertation beschäftigt sich insgesamt mit der numerischen Analysis singulärer Integralgleichungen, besteht aber aus zwei voneinander unabhängigen Teilen. Der este Teil behandelt Diskretisierungsverfahren für mehrdimensionale schwach singuläre Integralgleichungen mit operatorwertigen Kernen. Darüber hinaus wird hier die Anwendung dieser allgemeinen Resultate auf ein Strahlungstransportproblem diskutiert, und numerische Ergebnisse werden präsentiert. Im zweiten Teil betrachten wir ein Kollokationsverfahren zur numerischen Lösung Cauchyscher singulärer Integralgleichungen auf Intervallen. Der Operator der Integralgleichung hat die Form \ $aI + b \mu^{-1} S \mu I $\ mit dem Cauchyschen singulären Integraloperator \ $S,$\ mit stückweise stetigen Koeffizienten \ $a$\ und \ $b,$\ und mit einem klassischen Jacobigewicht \ $\mu.$\ Als Kollokationspunkte dienen die Nullstellen des n-ten Tschebyscheff-Polynoms erster Art und Ansatzfunktionen sind ein in einem geeigneten Hilbertraum orthonormales System gewichteter Tschebyscheff-Polynome zweiter Art. Wir erhalten notwendige und hinreichende Bedingungen für die Stabilität und Konvergenz dieses Kollokationsverfahrens. Außerdem wird das Stabilitätskriterium auf alle Folgen aus der durch die Folgen des Kollokationsverfahrens erzeugten Algebra erweitert. Diese Resultate liefern uns Aussagen über das asymptotische Verhalten der Singulärwerte der Folge der diskreten Operatoren.

For a locally compact group G, the papers [13] and [7] have many results about G-invariant subsets of G-modules, and the relationship between G-module maps, L1(G)-module maps and M(G)-module maps. In both papers, the results were given for one specific module action. In this thesis we extended many of their results to arbitrary Banach G-modules. In addition, we give detailed proofs of most of the results found in the first section of the paper [21].
